Do you commute by bike?

No, I don't go to work on my bike. Even if I want to, it's going be too much work for me because it's a bit far which is why I have to take a bus or drive myself. Maybe if my workplace is a little bit closer to my home, I'd easily consider taking my bike.

I could commute by bike. I work about 25 minutes away by driving. I could leave early and likely get to work in less than an hour.
The only bad thing is I'll have to get on a road with windy curves and hills, starting out before daylight, it would be pretty dangerous, even with lights.
I might feel better if I had an e-bike.

It's definitely very risky to do that and I'm glad you know it. This is not about saving money on gas like most people thing but about being safe and alive in the end.
E-bike might give you an edge but it's not totally safe either.

It's not totally safe but in the event that the gas gets too expensive, it might worth it.
Heck, we might see more people around my parts on e-bikes than not if gas gets crazy.
